Likelihood to Recommend If you're trying to do outreach, it's tough to be different. Cold emails are helpful, but so many people use the same templates or intricate automation in general that many buyers have cold email blindness. If you are trying to reach new prospects or communicate better with your clients, video adds a layer of sophistication that makes a difference. If you just want massive campaigns and are scared of showing your face, avoid Hippo Video.
Read full review Pair development Knowledge Shares Bug-reporting and explanation Audio/voice integration WITH video share Makes gaming very fun Copy/Paste works flawlessly from my computer to another screenhero users computer. Screenhero works with screen-recording software, so not only can I pair-develop, I can take video of a pair development session. I can't think of any reason why Screenhero wouldn't be suited for any situation. I would say that they need to bring back the option for a native app capability outside of the slack app like they did during the Slack merge transition. Read full review Pros Records videos screen record/webcam. Send sales messages. Send support messages. Team communication. Helps collect testimonials. Read full review EASY! A simply to use and understand UI cannot be understated. I needed no additional training and did not need to reference and support documentation to pick up and use Screenhero with my team. It's easy to add new folks to connect with, easy to call them, easy to end the call, and so forth. I would liken the UI to a more sleek Yahoo Instant Messenger (for those who remember that service!). Painless. I rarely ever had connectivity issues or grainy audio/video quality. When I did occasionally encounter that (rough guess maybe 1 in 20), it usually cleared itself up after a few seconds. I think it's only ever "locked up" on me twice, meaning I had to disconnect and reconnect in order for the issue to be resolved. Overall, a painless experience. Read full review Cons Need an offline version to work Need more video effects More tutorials will be helpful Read full review I'm not sure how to sign up right now. I guess until it's integrated into Slack as a full-blown feature it'll stay like that. Most probably it'll be monetized as an extra feature. This is true for most of the remote management solutions: security concerns. Slack had some break-ins in the past, giving remote control to your computer can be dangerous. Another issue which is problematic for similar product too: watch out if there's an extra remote server is involved. Say you and your client you want to guide with Screenhero both log in to a remote server through RDP. Both the RDP and Screenhero capture hotkeys, and depenfing on if your other peer logs into screenhero on the server itself or his machine, things like copy-paste won't work because the RDP is interfering with the remote management software. Read full review Support Rating Hippo Video is in India. They answer your questions but they do take a little time. Not sure if they're a big team but they do respond to important messages. They also use their own tool for support and will show you how to fix the problems that you're having.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Loom is an excellent tool, and I have nothing to say against it, but I feel Hippo Video has an edge on the Marketing/Sales focus that is key for my organizations.
Bonjoro is also a good choice, but I noticed a focus on Customer Service and just building relationships with existing clients, which is okay, but for our purposes, we needed a more go-to-market-oriented tool.
Read full review Screenhero being acquired by Slack was honestly the primary reason we selected it over
TeamViewer . Our organization is heavily invested in Slack's enterprise solution, so choosing Screenhero was a pretty easy decision. On top of that, Screenhero delivers very well on its core competencies, so there doesn't seem to be a very good reason to not use it given its relationship with Slack.
